Toyota Camry road test review

Image
Did you know the Camry is Toyota’s longest-running nameplate in India? Since its debut in 2002, this luxury sedan has weathered intense competition from multiple rivals and shifting market dynamics with the relentless SUV onslaught. Through it all, the Camry has quietly carved a niche of its own. Backed by Toyota’s reputation for bulletproof reliability and long-term dependability, it has created a loyal customer base, comprising buyers who value comfort and peace of mind over badge appeal. Since the previous generation, Toyota has committed the Camry exclusively to a hybrid powertrain. With fuel economy figures that remain exceptional for its class, the Camry continues to position itself as the rational alternative to entry-level German sedans. We take a comprehensive look at the latest iteration to assess whether this understated luxury sedan still makes a compelling case in today’s evolving market.

3 reasons to buy the Hero Destini 110 and 2 to skip it

Image
The Hero Destini 110 recently received a comprehensive update, carrying forward the neo-retro styling from its 125cc sibling. Positioned as a value-focused alternative in a segment dominated by the Honda Activa and TVS Jupiter, the Destini 110 is simple, affordable, and built with comfort in mind. If you're considering the Destini 110, here's what works in its favour and a couple of reasons it might not be the best option. Reasons to buy the Hero Destini 110 Excellent ride comfort The suspension setup on the Destini 110 is really well tuned for Indian road conditions and is able to take on bad roads, potholes and speedbreakers in a very plush manner. Paired with the well-padded seat, it provides a really comfortable riding experience, and this is one of the scooter's biggest strengths.

2026 Audi Ice Drive Experience with the S5 Avant: Cool School

Image
I’m layered for the cold of Muonio, but nothing prepares me for such a sight of white. Snow blankets the ground, hangs off rooftops and weighs down the pine trees. The setting looks straight out of a fairy tale. Muonio sits in Finnish Lapland, around 200km into the Arctic Circle. This is properly up there. In winter, daylight is limited, temperatures are extreme (-15°C is a good day!) and nature dictates the pace of life. I find myself here for some serious work. To learn the art of car control at Audi’s mega Ice Drive Experience. We wouldn’t get too far without AWD. My ice dancing partner for two days is the Audi S5 Avant – the hotted-up estate version of the new A5. The long roof, tight proportions and muscular haunches make it look the business, and it’s got the go to match the show with a 367hp, 550Nm, 3.0-litre turbo-petrol V6. It’s also got a key detail that will make all the difference in this environment – Quattro all-wheel drive. Also essential here are studded tyres. Th...
